Nah...nothing personal, I used to live in Bolton once upon a time ago, and moving up there with a "posh" southern accent made life shall we say "interesting". My life only became easier when in the play ground whilst playing football (i was crap) i swung a very hard foot into the shin of the school bully whilst trying to get the ball off him....I missed the ball but caught him a beauty.....luckily for me he was crying so hard he couldn't get up and chase the "Southern Jessie" and give me a good hiding. i just remember that no one wore coats up there in the rain....that was until those parkars came in with the hoods.....and then I think only because being the first "hoodies" made you more difficult to ID :D

ps has it stopped raining up there yet?

when i was there it only rained twice.....once for 4 months, and a second time for 5 months !

Looked very shiny. Gentleman's head possibly shinier.

Spotted a chap wearing a Black C6 on steel this evening at the Foo Fighters concert in Milton Keynes. Chap in question had RayBans and a white t-shirt with a map of Japan on. Anyone on here?

Ha Ha just seen this! I'm a Hampshire boy but dragged around the UK a bit! :lol:

Swap football for rugby league and Bolton for Wigan and this is exactly the same story for me!

Now I'm in Wiltshire and got called "me Love" today! My wife doesn't even say that! :lol:

Apart from my beloved (a W1SWS and a W1GKG) and a bunch of friends that I lured into the CW fold myself, I have never seen anyone else wearing a CW in Real Life.

Frankly ... i have never seen a stranger wearing a CW watch.
Not in real life.

But maybe thats because across the pond (mainland Europe / The Netherlands) not many (normal :) ) people
knows this Englisch brand.

But at a Dutch HT-Forum (Topic / section: watches) i made a link to this forum and CWL's new concept watches.
A few watch lovers ... loved the C700 Concept. So who knows ... maybe in the near future, i see some Dutch strangers wearing a CW watch. ;D

Every time I go to france on Holiday there are Dutch people everywhere.....they are very friendly, and speak better English than wot i does.......so if your in france this summer and you see a half drunk English bloke trying to show interest in his kids trying to kill themselves in some french playground.....and he has a bottle of beer in his hand keeping him company.....if your wearing a CW....please feel free to help yourself from the cooler bag !

True, you are really a strong supporter of CW on that forum (and also of Hamilton :D )

I regularly see a Dutch bloke wearing a CW watch, but that's my brother, so that doesn't count as "stranger".

It depends on how much you see him :winken: :D

Leuk een Nederlander, die komen hier niet zoveel voorbij.

Toevallig ook actief op het HT Forum ?
